Hmm, what is the error message you get? It works fine here: arnd@wuerfel:/tmp$ git clone git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/arnd/asm-generic.git Initialized empty Git repository in /tmp/asm-generic/.git/ remote: Counting objects: 1180676, done. remote: Compressing objects: 100% (189568/189568), done. remote: Total 1180676 (delta 984963), reused 1179831 (delta 984290) Receiving objects: 100% (1180676/1180676), 288.80 MiB | 1308 KiB/s, done.

Feel free to base you code on top of asm-generic.git#next, but tell me when you intend to do that so I can warn you of possibly rebases. The easiest way for you to merge code would be if you can arrange to have a git account on kernel.org (see http://www.kernel.org/faq/#account), on your company web server, or on a free hosting service like github.com or gitorious.org. Your patches or git tree should merge fine with the linux-next tree so that Stephen can pick them up as early as possibly, but in general they should not be _based_ on linux-next because that would mean that Linus needs to pull all of linux-next in order to merge your code.
